A Valentine’s Weekend at Sarah’s Cottage in Northumberland: a deep dive into our third raffle prize


Imagine this: a long weekend with your favourite person, nestled in the heart of Northumberland’s breathtaking countryside.

The fire crackles, the prosecco is flowing, and you’re indulging in cheese and cake sourced from local farms… pure bliss.

And guess what? This could be you! Our third raffle prize is a dreamy three-night stay over Valentine’s weekend, generously donated by Sarah from Northumberland.

One lucky couple will experience this cosy getaway in this gorgeously converted barn, and trust us, it’s a prize you won’t want to miss!

So, let’s take a closer look into what your Valentine’s weekend could look like…

Come inside

You’ve just arrived at Sarah’s Cottage, tucked away in a charming village in Morpeth, surrounded by lush greenery, farms, and local wildlife.

Your host, Sarah, will greet you with a warm welcome, ready to give you the grand tour of your new home for the next few nights.

As you walk in, you’ll pass a delightful outdoor breakfast nook – the perfect spot for enjoying your morning coffee in the sun-drenched courtyard.

Inside, a bright and beautifully decorated hallway awaits, blending modern comfort with the cottage’s timeless historic charm.

Let’s get cookin’

The kitchen is well-stocked with all the pots and pans you’ll need to make your very own three-course meal, as well as a good old fry-up, too.

Sarah very kindly leaves fruit, cheese, cakes, and eggs for all guests, which are of course, homemade or sourced locally.

A cosy evening awaits

And now onto arguably the best part of the cottage… the living room. Equipped with magazines, boardgames, and a fireplace.

This area is the best place to cosy up with a bottle of wine, watch a movie, and enjoy the sunset over Northumberland’s hills.

Where you’ll be sleeping

Upstairs, you’ll discover two spacious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom. Although this getaway is set for Valentine’s weekend, there’s plenty of room to bring along family or friends to share in the experience if you’d like!

What’s happening nearby

While the cottage offers a perfect retreat to relax and unwind with your special someone, Northumberland is full of exciting places to explore.

From the historic Bamburgh Castle and Hadrian’s Wall to the stunning Alnwick Gardens, there’s no shortage of adventures nearby.

And if you’d rather not cook, Sarah has a partnership with the local village pub, so you can enjoy a meal out while saving a bit of cash!

But how can you be in with the chance of winning all this? Well, you have to enter our Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere Raffle, and what’s better, you’ll be helping to save lives in Northumberland and beyond by doing so.
